Villa Borgo B&B

Quaint B&B at the top of the hill, the sweetest staff, and breakfast with a view!

Motovun is a charming hilltop town in the middle of northern Istria. The Villa Borgo is located almost at the top, just below the castle. The rooms are simple, the beds comfortable, and the water hot. The staff and the breakfast are both great.

Hotel with a beautiful view and breakfast on a terrace is the best. Rooms are small, but ok. Bathroom are small but clean. Stuff greets guests et parking in front if hotel. Some 400m of distance. Hotel is near of the center (and churche) of town.

Motovun is a tiny village with very few hotels and restaurants. The old.town is pedestrian only so parking is 'down the hill' and the hotel car picks you up. We had a valley view adjacent to communal terrace. Hitel does a great.job ahutting terrace.down at 10 pm for noise control. Super.friendly staff and a.bonus - well.stocker honor bar in lobby w chilled beer, water, local.wines. corkscrew handy, did not need to ask. Even supplied quality glassware!

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Borgo. The room is a bit small but very clean and equipped with everything you need. Very good quality beddings and linen. Breakfast was amazing! They offered freshly made omelette every morning and you can even have it with truffles! The view from their private balcony is breathtaking. You can see the entire valley from there. We enjoyed having breakfast on the balcony. Great location where you can walk to pretty much everything in Motovun tho parking can be challenging since it’s a small town with very limited parking. They offer a pick-up from a parking lot to the hotel so you won’t have to carry your luggage yourself.

Villa Borgo is a magic place in a wonderful medival town. Most people come from the coast for a day-trip or one night. I stayed here with my parents and my teenage daughter for five nights, and we didn't regret it at all. The medival streets of Motovun are not easy to walk for elder people (like my parents), but also here the staff of Villa Borgo is helping tremendously, by example by transfer to the parking lots. The staff is absolutely great and extremely helpful, they made our stay especially enjoyable! And they prepare a wonderful breakfast with the best scrambled eggs ever, normal style or with truffles! From the terrace of Villa Borgo, you have a perfect view on the valley, and at night a perfect sundown. We were sitting a whole day on this terrace, enjoying the view, the people passing by, and the drinks that are served by the bar on the other side of the street (B5, connected to Villa Borgo). Before 9 am and afzer 9 pm, you can walk the medival walls for free - don't miss this!. Food is not cheap in Motovun, but it is worth it, it is of very high quality - and you will most probably never eat better truffles! They prepare everything with it, from truffled omelett and truffled pasta (both around 12.- to 19.-) to truffled pannacotta (!). I am quite positive that my first visit in Villa Borgo was not my last one!

We had the apartment in the basement, which is spacious, clean, has an incredible view and a huge bathroom with a jacuzzi(!). On the downside, the kitchen has no windows. The B&B and its hosts are generally very nice, it has a terrace with the same berautiful view over the surrounding valley. Breakfast is fine, too, with great coffee. The best thing about it: It is located in the very heart of Motovun, almost on top of the hill. You won't find a better place in Motovun, but it is not particularly cheap

The Villa Borgo is all about the staff and service. Our room was just ok, and we didn’t like climbing three flights of stairs coming and going…but the building is what it is, and they have a lovely terrace with an inc red double view. We ate well, with a freshly made breakfast for us, and great local restaurants. Plus, chocolate in their espresso!

Slave took great care of our two groups that stayed there in June. Beautiful views, nice rooms, amazing breakfast. Eating breakfast on the terrace is lovely. Truffle eggs, fresh fruit, pastries, lots of yummy food! We will bring our groups back next year!
